Well since the car wreck, I have been sleeping a lot, not really sure why it took so much out of me but it has/did.m Sleeping plum through the am mgs, naps during the days & no more vampire hours!
Also, having to deal with the insurance & hearing my car was 'not worth fixing' was a real blow. A friend's mother sd, "see the Godsend in this" so this is what I have been trying to do while making some tough decisions & healing up.
I was being to get an ugly bump (scar tissue) formin, so I have just soaked it peroxide, and scrubed it down - wow! - the pain so I will have to not let it air out as much, while it heals over. Icing it for 5 days straight, my bruising is almost gone, but typing is still painful, so have just taken a few days away.
Plus I've been trying thinking about what I want to do with the rest of my life, really, what it is that I want for myself....
So I ought to be back in chat soon, thank you for your thoughts/prayers kind responses to my posts ~ as you are all in mine, my chosen family.
I love you all & hope you are all doing well.
Loads of love & light, - Kitty of Light

Sleep is very healing.It's good that you are resting and nursing your injuries.(I'm still keeping vampire hours and it's exhausting being unable to sleep.)
Sorry about the car.But you are far more valuable and irreplaceable.
Look forward to seeing you in chatroom again,when you are feeling better.
I don't know what kind of bump this is but you need betadine not peroxide.Peroxide is ok at first to clean the wound, but after you use ten or more parts water to one betadine.
Peroxide will damage more tissue. That bubbling is hard on new healing tissue. If you have an infection, an abcess, it needs to be lanced to let out the pressure and flushed out,not scrubbed. If it is a bruise, I don't understand the scar tissue thing?
If it hurts and is an abcess you may need anti biotics too.
Please take care of you. Sleeping is a natural response to many things. You are suffering loss for one thing. Please allow yourself to sleep when ya need to.
Hello, kitty, Thanks for giving us the update. What a great way to spend this down time - thinking about your life. I always get so much from your posts. I have had a couple of car accidents in the past, and I found that they did put me back for a bit - I think they are a real blow to our bodies, deeper than we know. We look forward to hearing from you soon. blessings, mebjk
I am so glad you are healing. I had no idea you were in an accident. I will be praying for you.
First car I ever owned was recked my a semitruck (He thought I was going to run a light that was yellow, and would have been red before I would have made it through the intersection. So I stopped, he didn't and he was behind me) Anyway---- I felt silly for mourning my car, but it was my first and it really grew on me, but it was ugly . With the settlement I was able to buy my dream car (well at 19 it was my dream car) LoL, it died on me a month later, but everything worked out.
Keep taking care of you.
Much Love,

hey girl, sorry i came in so late on this......but my prayers and best wishes for FAST recovery are for U. ok??? U take care and take care of U, dont' worry about being on the boards...i am lightening up too, with all the disasters happening to me lately......love n hugs, me
Thankyou for the update. I try to plan ahead and think about what I might want. I have my own future to plan. I also have my own wounds to attend to. Sometimes it is a good opportunity to rest to open up the space to what might be. I am glad that you are taking care of yourself.
Kitty, time to think productively is good I feel. Hope you'll keep an eye on that wound and get attention if needed. BTW, aloe is soothing. But if you start to get an infection, pls see doc. I've had cellulitis before from insect bites, is nasty, and not something to play around with.
